She wasn&#8217;t afraid of the bears, coyotes, and wildcats. But Hallie was afraid of fire and understood the threat it posed to the forests, wildlife, and people. And more than anything, she wanted to devote her life to protecting her beloved outdoors; she decided she would work for the US Forest Service. But in the 1880s the Forest Service didn&#8217;t hire women, thinking they couldn&#8217;t handle the physical challenges of the work or the isolation. But the Forest Service didn&#8217;t know Hallie or how determined she could be. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Snippet:<\/strong> As soon as she finished school, Hallie began mailing letters to the US Forest Service. She wanted to work. She wanted to help fight fires.<\/p>\n<p>But the Forest Service said no. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6536\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/asuen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nonfiction.monday.jpg?resize=158%2C111\" alt=\"Nonfiction Monday\" width=\"158\" height=\"111\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">It&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/asuen.com\/nonfictionmonday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nonfiction Monday!<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Copyright \u00a9 2021 <a href=\"https:\/\/asuen.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Anastasia Suen<\/a> All Rights Reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amazon | Bookshop | IndieBound Headstrong Hallie!: The Story of Hallie Morse Daggett, the First Female &#8220;Fire Guard&#8221; by Aimee Bissonette (Author) and David Hohn (Illustrator) Booktalk: Hallie Morse Daggett loved spending time outdoors, hiking among the tall trees of the forests in California&#8217;s Siskiyou Mountains.
